May 21

Another great day weather wise, making it 4 days in a row. This evening we are in Shap, which means that we are out of the Lakes district and the most challenging trails. The Brits think that someone arranged all this good weather for Harry ' s wedding but it is really intended for us Coast to Coast walkers. This morning we hiked up Kidsty Pike which is the highest point in the original C to C walk. Interestingly they were rebuilding parts of the trail that had eroded. To do this they hauled in boulders in large bags by helicopter. Each bag must have been 4 feet across. At the end of our holiday we will have some time to spend doing more hiking so we plan to return to the Lakes district because there are so many more trails to do.
